“You bitch!”
“Tessa!”
Tessa was stopped by a gentle voice abruptly.
Following the voice, Raegan saw a woman in a wheelchair who was behind Tessa. This must be Lauren, Raegan thought to herself.
Lauren was wearing a graceful smile at this time. Her demeanor and smile alone showed that she was a well-educated lady from a reputable family.
The only drawback was that she was so ill that she could only get around in a wheelchair.

Raegan previously read somewhere that Lauren had a blood coagulation disorder and she had to spend so much time abroad to receive treatment from the best doctors in the world.
When Tessa saw Lauren, she suppressed her anger and said in a sarcastic tone, “It’s a great honor to introduce you two. Lauren, meet Raegan, Mitchel’s assistant. While you were abroad, she worked round the clock to look after Mitchel.”
Her words were plain, yet explicit. Anyone with a brain would understand what she was trying to say.
Lauren caught the drift. Her face turned pale as she looked at Raegan.
Lauren was quick to get a grip. She looked at Tessa and said sweetly, “Oh, I just realized that I forgot my bag in the restaurant. Tessa, could you please fetch it for me?”
Tessa had wanted to say something more, but she swallowed it. She then walked back into the restaurant after giving Raegan a good glare.
Once Lauren and Raegan were alone, Lauren smiled up at Raegan and said, “Thanks for taking care of Mitchel for me in the past two years.”
This simple sentence was a clear indication that she was declaring possession of Mitchel.
Raegan found this very ironic because technically, Mitchel was hers since she was legally his wife.
Lauren continued, “I don’t know what I was thinking when I upped and left the country after a mere argument with Mitchel. I thought it was over between us, but to my surprise, he had been waiting for me all these years. I’m so touched that I have decided to marry him soon.”
Raegan was too stunned to speak now.
In an instant, Lauren’s voice became vague and distant.
It was as if an invisible hand grabbed Raegan’s heart and pulled her into an abyss. She soon experienced shortness of breath.
They were getting married? So, Mitchel couldn’t wait to divorce her?
“Raegan? Raegan?”
Lauren called twice and snapped her fingers before Raegan came to her senses.
“How may I help you?”
Looking at Raegan’s sullen face, Lauren was very complacent.
